Recommended Posts

A video has surfaced on social media apparently produced by the Islamic State’s Amaq News Agency depicting jihadists fighting in Marawi, southern Philippines, where foreign fighters are attempting to establish a caliphate.

Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte – who lives on Mindanao, the island Marawi is located on – has imposed a 60-day state of martial law on all of Mindanao in an attempt to quell the jihadist insurgency.
